Controlled by two different biologic mechanisms found in the body, the sleep-wake cycle balances and interacts with one another. Originally posited in the early 1980s by a Swiss sleep scientist named Alexander Borbely, the model is typically known as the sleep-wake regulation two-process model. These two key processes consist of the following: 1. Sleep-Wake Homeostasis […]
Un sencillo dispositivo de dos ciclos apaga y enciende las neuronas cerebrales durante todo el día
Controlado por dos mecanismos biológicos diferentes que se encuentran en el organismo, el ciclo sueño-vigilia se equilibra e interactúa entre sí. Propuesto originalmente a principios de la década de 1980 por un científico suizo especializado en el sueño llamado Alexander Borbely, el modelo se conoce normalmente como modelo de dos procesos de regulación sueño-vigilia. Estos […]
The Memory Molecule: Long Term Memory Improvement with IGF2
Sleep deprivation has been associated in many studies with a variety of negative cognitive effects including fatigue, poor decision-making and short-term memory loss. However, a new study in chronobiology, however, has shocked researchers by suggesting that sleep deprivation may actually improve long-term memory. This counter-intuitive effect is due to the effects of a molecule called […]
La Molécula de la Memoria: Mejora de la memoria a largo plazo con IGF2
La privación de sueño se ha asociado en muchos estudios a una serie de efectos cognitivos negativos como la fatiga, la toma de decisiones inadecuadas y la pérdida de memoria a corto plazo. Sin embargo, un nuevo estudio sobre cronobiología ha sorprendido a los investigadores al sugerir que la privación de sueño puede mejorar la […]
Gene That Controls the Internal Clock Discovered
The circadian rhythm is a subject of many studies, yet it remains a mystery in many ways. While scientists have identified many of the cell proteins involved in circadian rhythm and several genes that contribute to a healthy rhythm, the “master clock” gene remained elusive. However, a recent chronobiology study on rats indicates that the […]
